[...]

Depends on whether there are more things that need changing, whether I feel the existing changes have been tested sufficiently, and that the Debian tooling is ready for it (such as lintian and lintian-brush).

As an example, until #1067653 is fixed, then lintian will give contradicting advice to one of the compat 14 changes, which I consider "not very nice". Especially not if lintian-brush will then "auto-fix" it favor of lintian's world view.

If you want compat 14 sooner, consider:

  1) testing compat 14 works as intended on a subset of your packages if
     you have any where a bit of instability is an acceptable risk (or
     do it in experimental only)
  2) try out how other tools such as lintian and lintian-brush react and
     report any issues there.

Best regards,
Niels


I have added known bugs as blockers for this one (thanks for filing the one for lintian-brush). Please consider adding any other that you file or find. :)

Best regards,
Niels
